James Franco turns 33 today (April 19)! As the guy who seems to already do it all -- act, direct, write, get his graduate degree, pursue his Ph.D. and find time to host the Oscars -- what else might Franco heap onto his plate in the coming year?

Since James is born under Aries, the sign of surprises, speed and action, there is no slowing him down. In fact, last year he was just building up steam to further explore his interests, as Jupiter is still in his house of identity and stirring up his brain with more ideas of where to go. Big shifts can come on suddenly during June and July of this year, when Jupiter shifts to his solar Second House, while a series of eclipses in his solar Ninth and Third House indicate he'll expand on his creativity globally. This could mean teaching or showing off his work and taking a more artsy role in his expression. This will mean not just more acting, writing and directing, but taking on new crafts too -- like painting, sculpture or photography. So in case you didn't think the actor was already ubiquitous enough -- get ready for more James!
